Cassie's choice of words perplexed Dimitri a bit as he returned from the vending machine with a bottle of water in hand. He'd begun to ask her what she'd meant in regards to age, however the question died in his throat and was replaced with a snort as Jack of Spades decided to call him out, "[b][color=f26522]As if![/color][/b]". Roland's comment further amused Dimitri, which brought him yet another smile as he waited until further introductions were over to explain. "[b][color=f26522]Well-[/color][/b]" He began as he held out the bottle of water for Nuime to take, "[b][color=f26522]It's just a small group of us that do it. Occasionally we hold these sort of sparring matches in our gym to keep our skills sharp and a few of us decided to place bets to see who wins. Sort of an all around bonding experience I guess.[/color][/b]". He let out a short and somewhat embarrassed laugh and shrugged his shoulders, "[b][color=f26522]I admit that I may have a little bit of a gambling addiction, so I like to spectate and bet with the crowd. Like I said earlier though, i'm not too big on fighting heroes, so the betting pool's gotta be pretty big for me to actually participate.[/color][/b]".
